Compare to You


It means a lot more to me
Than scribbled representations could minutely
Present in a snapshot of verse.
It’s like the soothing whisper of a lover
Conveyed on the notes of a jazz instrumental.
The splendor of your grace is a fragrance
Ushered into eminence by poetic overtones.

The jade of your forests,
The tan parches of your wilderness,
The scorch of your sunshine,
The pensive emerald of your lagoons,
And the rustic exquisiteness of your ranches
Makes you special in a style
That could only compare to you.
